It’s been a month since Gen Con and since then I’ve been really busy at work leading to my limited time to write here. I have however had some time to play games that I picked up at Gen Con including Dragon Slayer, Sentinel: Tactics, Abyss, Cash & Guns and...

Sooo….. This is the 2nd time I’ve posted this. Thanks to the wonders of the Blogger Android app I managed to wipe the original post. Fortunately I had the content of the post in an email I sent to Dustin. Needless to say the Blogger Android app has been removed...
